"This will go to the Courts. Congress will sue the President over the Border Wall."

Will "Congress" sue? Does anyone in Congress with the authority to make that a congressional action want to sue - and face the wrath of the right? Do individual corrupt insiders have the standing to sue without a majority vote in both the House and the Senate?

If true, I will enjoy watching this play out. Normally, the standing question irritates me, but in this case it might for once help real Americans.

I believe any issue before SCOTUS must be a Constitutional one. T^he Congress _could_ (my opinion) sue under Separation of Powers/Enumerated Powers.

I have faith in POTUS’ lawyers.

I’m guessing the GOP and demonrats made a deal with President Trump because they knew this law. All they had to do was send him an omnibus bill, he signs it, sends the letter to notify congress what he intends to do.

The only up side for the GOP and demonrats is if Trump does move the money to build the entire wall is they can claim during the midterm elections that they are not to blame for the wall.

Trump gets the wall and all the blame and they remain blameless.
